Elijah (Pt. 2)

Going Further

Hi Everyone! A couple of ideas for family activities after watching this video:

1) Read 1 Kings 18.

2) Family Time.

• Review the story of Elijah from 1 Kings 17 and 18.
• Act out the story together. You can use a few props such as sheets/towels for costumes, flour, oil, sticks, colored crepe paper for fire, etc. Use your imagination!
• After acting it out, ask which events in the story especially had meaning to them. Take time to listen and value each child’s input.
• Discuss idol worshiping. What kind of idols do we worship today that stops us from putting Jesus first?
• Discuss some practical ways, that as a family, “waiting with God” can be lived out. What kinds of things would God have you do during this time that you might not have thought about before COVID-19?
• While waiting with God, Elijah was always talking with God, listening to Him, and obeying. Talk about what that means. Take the time to pray together as a family.

3) Activities.

• Draw a picture about today’s lesson, take a picture of it and send it to Pastor Shaun so that it can be shared in next week’s video.
• Scroll down to the music videos and sing along.
• Have fun using the activities below.
